Re: Crying Diary
Don't have the patience to retype the whole thing but today, March 4, on and off from about 13:30 to about 18:00, same reasons as before, intensity still soft sobbing, big tear volume, location, wherever in my home I happened to be. I seem to be baking a habit of this.

Re: Crying Diary
I'm not sure if reflexive should tears count as "crying" on this site, along with whining and yelling. I think it ought to be limited to being a physical reaction to emotions. IMO, of course.

Re: Crying Diary
Date:a week ago.forgot the date.
Time: 11:00
Duration: on and off for four hours or so.
Intensity: varied, but mostly pretty intense. Releasing multiple tears at once, was dripping everywhere, it was sloppy.
Location: wherever I happened to be, bed, cooking, washing machine...stuff needs doing even if I'm crying.
Reason: mixed emotions. News of the birth of my nephew, my sister's fifth child. I am overjoyed because I'm a very devoted aunt, but both my sisters have five children now while I am the only one of my family who ever wanted a house full of kids, from when I ess little. another baby isn't an option for me for right now and seeing my nephew really brought home how badly I had wanted that.
Reaction: just let 'er rip. No one was home so I could be as drippy and undignified as I wanted.
Lip curl: Yup
People present: My self

Re: Crying Diary
Pretty intense. Could you tell if it was a big lip curl or a mild one?

Re: Crying Diary
It must have varied because it went on so long.

Re: Crying Diary
Date: 3/13
Time:4 am
Duration 30 sec
Intensity: just a few tears
Location: my car
Reason: Coming home from a tough shift having been up for 22 hours and had not finished all of my work. Frustration, exhaustion, and realizing just how tough,humbling, and frightening the first year of my residency has been. I remember trying to fight the tears and then wondering why as there wasn't anyone there to see.
People present: alone
Lip curl: no
"...men do not cry. They will do anything BUT cry. They stop themselves crying. And eventually they do cry if it is bad enough. So that's how you know with a man how bad it is for him. Because he would've stopped himself...Men always cry like that. They don't cry and in the end they do and if they do then it's overwhelming." ~Michael Caine

Re: Crying Diary
Isn't it dangerous to have doctors working in that state of exhaustion?
